Abstract

The National Coalition of Anti-Violence Programs (NCAVP) coordinates the National Training and Technical Assistance Center on Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, Transgender, & Queer (LGBTQ) Cultural Competency. This project works to identify gaps in services and provide tailored technical assistance to increase LGBTQ accessibility and inclusivity. The NCAVP TTA Center also provides free ongoing technical assistance and support to Office on Violence Against Women (OVW) grantees nationwide through a toll-free warmline number, list serve, Deaf-accessible instant messaging AIM, and resource bank of LGBTQ anti-violence materials. The NCAVP TA Center is available for direct service and advocacy organizations seeking answers, support, and strategies to become inclusive of and accessible to lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, and queer (LGBTQ) survivors, on issues such as language and terminology, developing inclusive policies and procedures, building relationships with LGBTQ communities and more.
